Back 2 School

I don’t know about you, but our summer has FLOWN by.  We are definitely ready for school to start so we can get back into a better routine, where we are not so lazy everyday.  Don’t get me wrong…lazy has been fun!

As usual, I have been a complete copy cat with back to school craft projects.  Thank goodness for crafty blogs that are generous with their creative ideas!  I copied the Ruler Wreath idea from Polka Dot Chair.  Just made a few minor changes.  This was a super easy and cheap one to make.P1080643

Back 2 School pennant to match my wreath.

I also copied Eighteen 25 with the Teacher Goodie Box.

I got these little word strips from the dollar store and love them.  They look like official school business. :)  They will be good to use for gift tags ad other projects for teachers throughout the year.P1080649

They were also a cute addition to the Teacher Goodie Box.P1080647

OK, the inside of my box is not near as cute and sassy as Eighteen 25.  I still need to add some things and jazz it up a bit.  I love how she color coordinated all the office supplies, but I could not find any cute ones like that anywhere.  I think I am going to add a little container of Tylenol.  If I was a teacher, that is what I would need EVERY DAY!P1080651

We are all ready for Monday now, except for the fact that I am in denial about having a child starting 4th grade!!!!!!  How did that happen so fast?

Very cute!! Leave it to you to find adorable teacher gifts. Adam's teachers will LOVE you!

I saw a wreath like that on Pinterest that was made with crayons instead of rulers. The rulers are so cute, too! Way to go:)
